Item SIMULATION FOR CONTROL SYSTEM OF DRAWWORKS AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION USING PLC FOR OIL AND GAS DRILLING(2022-08-14) MEMON, Sheeraz Ali; ÖZBEK, Mehmet EfeDrawworks is one of main component of drilling rig. To control drawworks it requires skill and experience. Driller that controls the drawworks has very difficult position for work because it is near to drilling rig. So, chances are more for unsafety. Failure of drawworks system could risk the life of driller if any error occurred. I have simulated drawworks control system and implemented the simulation to prototype model of drawworks control system. In prototype model of drawworks system for safety of driller and drawworks deadman button, ground fault error detector, deadband region has been added. To avoid jerks joystick analog signal has been smooth. Weight is one of most important parameters in drilling. Weight equilibrium have been done for travelling block if there is any change in weight, travelling block would move upward or downward according to weight. So, by applying these safety features drawworks system can be prevent from errors and jerks, this way safety is increased for drawworks system as well as for driller because of its work position near to the drilling rig. MATLAB and Twincat3 software has been used for simulation and implementation.
